nonsense-- i started smoking weed at 19 and it fucked me up. at first it was like "oh, wow, a new world!", but soon all i could think of was getting high-- "to eat lunch", "to watch a movie", "to write my exam", "to go to the beach", so that for every purpose and activity there was the need to get high. eventually i don't know if it made me schizophrenic but i sure started acting crazy. probably because at the time i had some unresolved "issues", and guess what? they exploded under the influence. drugs are drugs. you can become an alkie if you start drinking at 55. sure the risk is lesser for competent adults, but there are many people who are emotionally incompetent and are going to always need a crutch to make themselves feel better or at least forget about their life's pain with the help some external substance.

anyway i forgot why i was writing this, ha ha, but there you have it.
